i need help in how to set up my PC for crunching. i have only one rig so i wont be able to crunch all the time.

how does this even work??

i will be using my phenom II X4 945 and ATI 4650 bothe at 100% for crunching.
my net connection is 512KBps dwn and 8KBps up.

Net speed has no say so. But here's a few threads to help you start out:
How To: Getting BOINC setup for WCG

Once you have everything running and you wish to run your rig at 100% crunching may want to look at this as an option:
Easy WCG_config

I highly highly suggest you really think about running it. I have ran into problems in the past with running WCG and multiple user profiles.

de.das.dude · Nov 9, 2010, 02:45 PM

its my own PC and its running already.. well atleast its saying 5000 completed out of 50000(10%)
